Hi all,
The iDigBio Data Management Interest Group is pleased to bring you the fifth installment of our DarwinCore (DwC) Hour webinar series.
TOMORROW’s webinar is almost here: DwC Standards in Practice: Introduction to Sharing Data Using the GBIF IPT.

ABSTRACT. This webinar introduces the GBIF IPT, the most widely used tool to publish and share biodiversity data through the GBIF network. Demonstrating how to publish a species occurrence dataset, special emphasis will be given to how to properly map fields to DwC terms while complying with vocabularies and making sure to satisfy GBIF’s required and recommended terms. It will end with a brief look at the tool’s roadmap, with some essential information all IPT administrators need to be made aware of.
